This is a ground-breaking shift for the tech industry," said the women-first investing firm.Apple that that their commitment to a safe, inclusive, and respectful work environment is backed by "a comprehensive policy that forbids harassment and discrimination"."We believe open and honest communication among team members, managers, and leaders helps create a collaborative culture where everyone can contribute, grow, and succeed," said the company.Apple's use of concealment clauses invited close scrutiny after former company engineer Cher Scarlett accused it of engaging "in coercive and suppressive activity that has enabled abuse and harassment of organisers of protected concerted activity."Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
